I met him, he looks 5’9”. That picture of him with Viggo and others looks off. He looks about 5’9” today.

I stood right next to George Best in 1965 at Northhampton FC. I am 5' 9'' and he was around an inch shorter.

He's 5'8 max.

He once said I believe at 17 that he was not much under 5ft8, but claimed he'd shot up from 5'3 so could have grown from 17 if he was a late bloomer, do you believe 5'8 is his peak height Rob ?

There is an iconic picture of Best and Law in the sun training- Law looks 5ft 10 in it and Best looks 5ft 7.

His 5ft 8.5 listing was probarbly in shoes. So that could make him an inch lower barefoot. That would put him at 5ft 7.5 at the lowest. In later years his body did look a little stooped so could have lost half an inch to an inch.

I found this pic of Ashton with Viggo Mortensen, Heidi Hayes, Maria Bello, Ed Harris, William Hurt, and David Cronenberg. I think he cant be 5'8, he looks 2 or 3 inches less than 5'9 Ed Harris.

I think George had definately lost an inch or two in his latter years - not sure whether that was atributable to his drinking or the knee injury he had. He did look around 5'7, but in his 20's I reckon he was around 5'9 - certainly that's what the Man United website gave him.

I read in the sun he was 5,7 seemed that height to me. He's sons pretty tall though.
